Bill > AB2230

This bill, by making technical, nonsubstantive changes to Section 1523 of the Penal Code, clarifies the definition of a search warrant, which is a written order from a magistrate, signed and issued in the name of the people, directing a peace officer to search for and seize specific items or individuals. The changes involve replacing outdated phrasing like "him or her" and "the same" with more modern and direct language such as "that peace officer" and "the thing or things, or the personal property," ensuring the legal definition is clear and precise without altering its fundamental meaning or the procedures for obtaining search warrants.
